Teachers' Favorite Things!

Have you seen "The O List" of Oprah's Favorite Things? Well, that got me thinking about
"The T List" - Teachers' Favorite Things!

I have at least 4 "must-have" teacher supplies and several others on my wish list.

Now I don't know if your wish list is like mine, but what if after you made your own list and checked it twice, you could actually receive up to $100 of those items?

This December, four teachers are teaming up to grant one lucky teacher’s Wish List. Kristy (2 Peas and a Dog), Danielle (Nouvelle ELA), Lisa (Mrs. Spangler in the Middle), and Sara (Secondary Sara) are putting on their Santa hats to gift a teacher his or her Favorite Things!

Here’s how it works:

1. Enter the Rafflecopter contest below, which ends on Sunday, December 10th at 11:59pm EST. (The winners will be contacted on Monday, December 11th).
2. Next, the winner makes an Amazon Wish List containing ANYTHING he/she wants for the classroom, up to $125.
3. We four teachers will surprise you by purchasing up to $100 of the items on your wish list; the items are shipped directly to your house!

But we aren't stopping there! Two more lucky teachers can also win these prizes:

Second Place Prize: A TpT wish list! One lucky teacher will get to pick up to $10 in resources from EACH of our four stores!

Third Place Prize: A TpT wish list! One lucky teacher will get to pick up to $5 in resources from EACH of our four stores!

Our Favorite Things!

If you need inspiration for your Wish List (or can’t wait to add it to your shopping cart now), here are both a few must-haves that I love as well as the items I would add to MY wish list:

Must-Haves

These are a few of my favorite things... 

that I use almost every day in my 7th grade ELA class:

EZ Grader

You can find this on Amazon - click here!  (not an affiliate) 

As a Language Arts Teacher, my verbal skills are strong - but my math is, well, not as strong. That's why I love my old EZ-Grader! I can just slide over to the number of questions and voila! - the scores appear!

Astrobrights

You can find this on Amazon - click here! (not an affiliate)

I love my Astrobrights paper to make copies of things that are used over and over. Like our lists of transitions for our essays for instance. They are printed on bright paper and kept in our writing folders for use all year long.

White-out Tape

Then there's my obsession with white-out tape. I just seem to go through it like crazy - especially when I am grading essays. I like to give thoughtful feedback and sometimes ( a lot of times) my brain just keeps coming up with new ways to say worn out things.

Paper Tray Organizer - Kvissle from IKEA

This is also on Amazon!

Don't you just love IKEA? I could spend all day
in that store as all the organizing things make me
feel inspired. But, I have limited myself to just two
of these trays (so far!) and I have one for papers
to be graded and one for graded papers. These organizers
are super sturdy with trays that slide out and help keep
my paper monster tamed.
Well, mostly. ;)

Wish List

Now for the things I'd LIKE to have but probably don't really NEED...

Like how about this great book embosser for my classroom library?

This is on Amazon - Click here!  (not an affiliate)

Or this super fun shirt?

I found it on Amazon - click here! (not an affiliate)

My 8th-grade son actually groaned when I showed him this - so I definitely have it sitting in my cart!  I'm even thinking about buying one for each member of my team!  :)

I'd be thrilled to receive any of these items, but I am sure there are many more I could add to my list that these fine bloggers have also recommended:

Secondary Sara

Nouvelle ELA

2 Peas and a Dog
